Climate Action Committee

On December 3, 2019 the City Council adopted a City Council Resolution declaring a climate emergency and committing to ongoing actions to restore a safe environment. The Climate Action Committee includes a cross-section of community members from all sectors working together to create a recommendation to the City Council on specific actions.
